What size screen MacBook Pro (2021) did you order?

Space gray is a really nice color. But go with the color you wanted it the first.
Agree. Seems unlike Apple not to have the colors match.

I’m going to go nuts obsessing over it while I watch it charge. Psh, and people worry about a notch!

I keep hoping some magical United Parcel Service fairy appears to me, MacBook in hand, so I can finally stop watching YouTube videos to get my fix in. It is Monday, 7:51 am in Shanghai right now. Could it possibly happen?!
 
So my package departed Louisville @ 3:02 PM EST today and I'm assuming it hopped onto a flight to Philadelphia Airport (KPHL). Anybody know if UPS traditionally flies packages from Louisville to Pennsylvania since it's over 600 miles? No way they'd travel by truck.... right? ?

Not seeing any en-route or scheduled flights from KSDF to KPHL on FlightAware as of right now. I guess it's possible I may need to add a few hours to account for possible delays that haven't shown up on FlightAware yet? Hmm.
 
My 16Max 64gb 4tb just went to preparing for shipping!
Congrats! When did you place your order? I ordered the 16" M1 Max with 64GB RAM and 4TB SSD as well on October 18th about 15 minutes after the keynote ended with a November 10-17 delivery date. My order has not moved from "Processing" since it was placed. I know on another thread there were a couple of us with this configuration in the same boat so hopefully yours is a sign of some movement for all of us.

I think that it’ll be flown to the Carlisle facility and then sent by UPS ground.
 
I won’t end up getting it, mods are definitely next. 👌

What’s the status update on your Mac? Where is the hold up, BTW?
Two day delay in ordering due to technical glitch between Veteran's page and Apple. Compensated $49.95 by management team, changed from standard to expedited shipping by customer service.

Still processing - has not charged to Apple Card, has not entered preparing to ship status, thus has not shipped & no real idea of accurate shipping dates.

Total lack of progress or information. If I can find 16" Max with similar or higher storage (and 64GB memory) then if in stock I will purchase from a reseller/vendor, but highly doubtful.

So that is my non-status update. I have done everything a consumer can in trying to troubleshoot the issues with my order. Awaiting a response from Tim Cook et al but probably a pipe dream to expect any progress.

Sticking with my experience of worst pre-order ever.
 
We have bigger things to worry about than my shopping addiction, like you not making the biggest mistake of your life by returning the beast.

No going back once your return date is gone. 😳

You might never recover from this if you send back the wrong beast. 😬
The biggest mistake would be listening to you. Don’t worry, you’ll be the reason why I return the 16. 😀

If it had these features, I’d gladly let it be my sleep buddy.
Funny. I found it in my bed underneath the pillows.

LMAO!!! i admire your fighting spirit, but we all give in to the Beast eventually, stop trying to fight it and let it happen. 😊

Under your pillow, that poor screen. 😳🤦‍♂️
